In other news, a teen mother has been arrested for allegedly shooting and killing her one-year-old son in J section, Umlazi. According to reports, the mother was sweeping the yard and had left her son alone in the house when a gunshot rang out.
KwaZulu-Natal Police spokesperson Robert Netshiunda stated that the mother initially told police she was outside when she heard the gunshot. She claimed that when she went inside to investigate, she found her son lying in a pool of blood with a gunshot wound to the head and saw no one leaving the house.

The child was rushed to the emergency room and then to the ICU, where he was operated on to remove the bullet. However, due to extensive damage causing severe brain swelling, the child was later declared brain-dead, and his parents decided to take him off life-support.
